Reflected light helps preserve frescoes
L’AQUILA, VERONA and FLORENCE, Italy – A new imaging technique that works somewhat like thermography in reverse uses reflected mid-infrared light to further refine the restoration of old masters. The powerful yet safe imaging tool for artwork diagnostics, called thermal quasi-reflectography (TQR), was developed by the University of L’Aquila, the University of Verona and the National Institute of Optics in Florence. It captures features not otherwise detectable with the naked eye or current imaging techniques. Unlike...
Rudolph Acquires NanoPhotonics
Sep 1, 2012 — Rudolph Technologies Inc. of Flanders, N.J., a maker of process control metrology systems used in semiconductor device manufacturing, has acquired NanoPhotonics GmbH of Mainz, Germany, to strengthen its presence in the high-growth advanced packaging...
Silicone eyed for extending solar cell lives
Sep 1, 2012 — Coating photovoltaic cells with liquid silicone could yield more robust, sustainable solar cells at a fraction of the cost of traditional ones. If solar panels are to exceed life spans of 25 years, scientists must investigate various types of...
Silicone promises to extend solar cells’ lives
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Coating photo-voltaic (PV) cells with liquid silicone could yield more robust and sustainable solar cells at a fraction of the cost of traditional ones. Solar panels deliver power without risk to the environment and climate, but their...

Sep 1, 2012 — Soitec (Euronext) of Bernin, France, and Chongqing Silian Optoelectronics Science & Technology Co. Ltd. (Silian) of China will jointly develop gallium nitride (GaN) template wafers to reduce LED manufacturing costs. The partnership agreement...
Terabits transmitted by twisted light
LOS ANGELES – Do you ever wish you could download that Netflix movie you’ve been dying to see in a matter of just a few seconds rather than those 15 long, grueling minutes, or watch the latest viral YouTube video without the hassle of buffering? Well, your...
Turbulence predicted for LED front-end equipment market
Sep 1, 2012 — “The LED front-end equipment market will experience turbulent investment cycles in the coming years,” wrote Yole Développement of Lyon, France, and EPIC (European Photonics Industry Consortium) in a recent report. The market...
Vision Stuttgart Growing in 25th Year
Sep 1, 2012 — As the trade fair reaches its silver anniversary, organizers expand offerings and move to a larger venue. Vision Stuttgart may be in its 25th year, but the annual trade fair remains on the cutting edge – and it’s still growing. In fact,...
White LEDs grown on paper
LINKÖPING, Sweden – Imagine a room with wallpaper that lights up with the touch of a hand. A zinc oxide and polymer solution could soon make this dream a reality by allowing LEDs to be grown directly onto the surface of paper, or even printed onto wallpaper like ink. ...
Limits of Plasmonic Enhancement Measured
DURHAM, N.C., & LONDON, Aug. 31, 2012 — Photonic interactions have been measured on the scale of a single atom for the first time. The ability to quantify the unique properties of light gives physicists a "road map" for precisely controlling its scattering in metal-based devices such as...
Osram and Samsung Settle Suits, May Team on LED Development
MUNICH & SEOUL, South Korea, Aug. 31, 2012 — The LED consumer may be the big winner in a patent suit settlement between Osram AG and Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., as the companies will now explore the idea of partnering on future products.
X-ray, Optical Wave Mix Probes Atomic-Scale Light
BERKELEY, Calif., Aug. 31, 2012 — A long-awaited technique for watching how light interacts with matter on the atomic scale was demonstrated by mixing x-ray and optical lightwaves. Vision, photosynthesis and solar cells are a few examples of the ways light changes matter, but how...
Laser Surgery Pioneer Isaac Kaplan Dies
TEL AVIV, Israel, Aug. 29, 2012 — Professor Isaac Kaplan, a pioneer in the creation of the first carbon dioxide laser for general surgery and founder of the International Society for Laser Surgery and Medicine, has died. He was 93. Kaplan was professor emeritus of surgery and past...
Survey Says: O&P Community Mostly Content
BELLINGHAM, Wash., Aug. 29, 2012 — More than 80 percent of optics and photonics professionals who responded to a new survey said they enjoy their work and find it meaningful. The survey, the largest such international study of the industry, was conducted last spring by SPIE. "Results...
Merging Microscopy Methods Sharpens Brain Imaging
SESTO FIORENTINO, Italy, Aug. 28, 2012 — Technology that combines the best features of two microscopy methods yields images 100 percent sharper than those acquired through conventional light-sheet-based microscopy (LSM).
Microscope Addresses the Need for Speed
LEICESTER, England, Aug. 28, 2012 — A technology used in projectors can create a high-resolution image 100 times faster than conventional microscopy equipment, which can be too slow to clearly document speedy biological processes.
3-D Photografting Grows Bio Tissue
VIENNA, Aug. 27, 2012 — Photografting, a new form of three-dimensional printing that uses lasers to precisely attach molecules at specific places in a material, could soon make it possible to grow biological tissue or to create microsensors.
Semiconductor Laser Sets Surface-Emission Record
DARMSTADT, Germany, Aug. 23, 2012 — A semiconductor laser that emits light over a wavelength range of 100 nm sets a record for a single semiconductor laser and could enable more efficient telecommunications networks and gas sensors.
Glasses-Free 3-D on the Horizon
SEOUL, South Korea, and BERLIN, Aug. 22, 2012 — Since the early days of cinema, engineers and scientists have tried to create a way to add the illusion of depth to projected images. Even with the latest technology, cumbersome 3-D glasses are needed to get the full 3-D experience.
Mars Rover’s Laser Zaps First Target
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., Aug. 22, 2012 — NASA’s Mars rover Curiosity fired its laser for the first time on Mars this week, hitting a fist-sized rock with 30 pulses, each delivering more than 1 million watts of power. The achievement was just the beginning of a two-year mission that...
Optical Microscope Exceeds Diffraction Limit
AMSTERDAM, LONDON and BARCELONA, Spain, Aug. 22, 2012 — An optical microscope that combines electronic excitation and optical detection has broken Abbe’s diffraction limit. The nanoscale imaging method offers insight into how light and complex photonic materials interact and could lead to enhanced...
Laser’s Cousin Comes In from the Cold
TEDDINGTON, England, Aug. 21, 2012 — A new solid-state maser capable of operating at room temperature could enable more sensitive medical instruments, improved chemical sensors, and better radio telescopes, among other applications.
